Nevermind leaving someone a voicemail; leave them a videomail! NTT DoCoMo is all geared up to expand FOMA's "Answering Machine Service" to add support for the recording of video messages. Messages as long as 3 minutes can be recorded, but hopefully the person hasn't left the country; messages will automatically be deleted after they've been around for 72 hours. As many as 20 messags can be saved.
No less than 68 FOMA handsets (the number that support both FOMA's TV Phone and DTMF) will support the new service.
